April Meeting Minutes
This is what we did at T.A.G. on April 3
- 3 new members joined us (yay!)
- During April we'll be having our annual National Library Week Bookmark Contest. This year there are new teen categories added: grades 5 & 6, grades 7 & 8, and high school. The contest will run throughout April for people to submit their entries. Then during the month of May, anyone who comes into the library can vote on their favorites. There will be 2 winners from each age group and they will be announced in June. The contest rules can be found online & at the library
- Any ideas for what movie we should show next?
Summer Reading
- It seems that most of us do not care for the name "YNK" or "You Never Know" which is the official name for the Teen summer reading program this year (it's a mystery theme). We brainstormed other possible names which included: Mystery Mania, Mystery Madness, and Mystery Mayhem.
- Programs we want to do this summer: project runway, card/game day, murder mystery night, and ______
- Summer reading prizes: candy, books, ice cream certificates, how to draw books, book weights, and ______
